Step 1: Basic Discovery
└── Website, LinkedIn, Google News, Glassdoor

Step 2: Tech Stack
└── Job postings, integrations page, case studies

Step 3: Pain Signals
└── Reviews, social mentions, forum posts

Step 4: Decision Makers
└── LinkedIn Sales Nav, company about page

Step 5: Synthesize
└── Generate company profile, score against ICP

1. What are they using now?
2. How long have they used it?
3. What's broken? (Check reviews, Reddit, forums)
4. What would make them switch?
5. Who else are they evaluating?

# When looking for MCP capabilities:

1. Check mcp-server-cookbook first
   └── /Users/tmkipper/Desktop/tk_projects/mcp-server-cookbook/

2. Search official MCP servers
   └── github.com/modelcontextprotocol/servers

3. Search community servers
   └── github.com search: "mcp server" + [capability]

4. Check if FastMCP wrapper exists
   └── Can we build it quickly?

5. Evaluate build vs. use existing
   └── Time to integrate vs. time to build
